Peterhead, Aberdeenshire. — On the 7th December, 1937, at about 2.30 P.M., information was received from the coastguard that the motor fishing boat Day Dawn, of Peterhead, with a crew of three, had been sighted by the lightkeeper at Buchanness, broken down, but with the Aberdeen trawler Birkhall standing by. The weather was bad, with a very rough sea and a strong N.E. wind. A drifter went out to help, but came back to report that the life-boat was wanted, as the trawler, which was now towing the Day Dawn, was afraid to tow her through the bay into harbour, on account of the heavy swell. The motor life-boat Duke of Connaught was launched at 4.20 P.M., and just as she reached the vessels, the Day Dawn parted from her tow. The life-boat then took her in tow and brought her safely into harbour at 5 P.M.—Rewards, £7 13s. 6d..
